This was my first ever radar detector, I'd never been pulled over before though I felt like I was pushing my luck. So I got a radar detector to give me a little assistance. It saved me once going 85 in a 35, KA band went off slammed my brakes slid around a corner and met a sheriff going 34 miles an hour. Sometimes cops don't have their radars on, which is a major downfall, so you'll still have to watch out. Just got busted criminal speeding, had my friend rip it off the dashboard and throw it under the seat.

I had set too much faith in the radar detector after it saved me about 3-4 times, which was major stupidity on my spot. My KA band went off, and I hit the brakes, but the cop was already about 150 yards away scanning me. He told me that he caught me doing 87, although my radar detector went off and I was only doing 75 at that point... But, it would have been stupid for me to tell him I had one. If you're caught doing a speed and you know you're screwed just keep going that speed until they pull you over, find a spot to pull of turn off your headlights and wait until you're not there anymore.

I'd also recommend not speeding with a group of people with HIDs on, because I was picked out of a small group; and my car was easily identifiable. Not only is it sporty, fast, but the headlights were just a major set off. Good luck, but I know I won't be speeding anymore.

The cool thing for your money. Fulfills all the working chambers in our town! Just squeaking in automatic doors in malls and at some gas stations, zdarovaetsya with other radar detectors, but it's not a bit annoying! Chose a very long time, read many forums about radar detectors and stopped on this model. In general buying pleased all advise!

Overall this radar detector is great, and I would recommend it to anyone needing it!!
Pros: Low cost/ Alerts to the new instant on radar / Long distance / easy to install/ comes with the permanent installable power cord
Cons: Too big / dimmer does not work well.

For the money this detector is great. The first day i had it it saved me the first day i got it. And I haven't had any problems with it yet

One thing is that you have to put it on a certain setting so the false alarms will decrease, but you will still get them.

This product also has a lot of great features like dim modes, and quiet modes. And this detector can be loud enough to be heard over loud music and also be very quiet when you don't feel like being bothered.
